Yes, I am obsessed with sweets. Aghhh I just can’t help myself! But that’s why I found the solution. I make them healthy! Hope you’re ready guys, this is a quick one! You will need : 3 bananas 6 eggs 2 tablespoons gluten-free flour ( coconut, almond, millet…whatever you like) 200 mL almond or coconut milk Note : This amount is for 3 portions Mix all ingredients until smooth. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, and turn each side when it’s brown. When you’re done, just pour honey, maple or agave syrup over them, and serve with fruits, jam or apple and mango purée ( THE BEST!) Thank you for your existence pancakes. Hope you’ll enjoy! Kisses, Z

Today, I was experimenting with some nuts, organic cacao powder and my favorite fruit! And the result I got was these perfect refreshing little raw cake bites. What I used : 1 cup hazelnuts or almonds hand full of sunflower seeds 2 tbl spoons cacao powder hand full of peanuts or pistachio hand full of raisins 1 tbl spoon coconut oil blueberries or raspberries 2 tbl spoons chia seeds How to do it : Blend hazelnuts or almonds with sunflower seeds, peanuts or pistachio, and raisins. Add coconut oil and cacao powder. For the second mixture, blend raspberries or blueberries with previously soaked chia seeds. Chia seeds need to be like jelly. If you don’t have chia seeds, you can mix the fruit with cashews. Add honey if you like. I made 3 cups with raspberries and four with blueberries. Add the first nut layer in the cup, then add the second, fruit layer. I made 4 layers, but you can make as much as you want 🙂 Have a good …

I am absolutely obsessed with the new product I found in my favorite health store. Ghee Butter! Yesss! For those of you who don’t know, it is a clarified butter that originated in ancient India and is commonly used in South Asian cuisines and traditional medicine. It is the main ingredient in some of the Ayurvedic medicines and Indian food. Ghee is pure butterfat cooked longer until all moisture is removed and the milk solids are caramelized and then filtered out. While butter is not necessarily bad for you, ghee has health benefits that make it healthier than butter. So, my lunch today was: Sesame ghee butter, gluten free bread, asparagus, ricotta cheese, vegetable salad, and of course, my cold pressed juice!

For me, gluten, lactose and my body are not getting along. Did you know that approximately 65 percent of the human population has a reduced ability to digest lactose after infancy. Also, gluten makes us bloated, tired, moody, and for some people it is even dangerous. It causes celiac disease – an autoimmune disorder in which the body reacts to gluten – it’s a classic food allergy marked by skin, respiratory or gastrointestinal reactions to wheat allergens. I don’t have celiac disease or allergies, but I have listened to my body when it wasn’t happy everytime I drank cow milk, ate bread, pasta or every other thing with gluten. I was bloated, lazy, tired and that’s something I can’t stand. I like to have my digestion regular and proper! If you feel there’s something wrong with your body, have a bad skin, cramps, allergies etc., I would highly recommend you to go on food intolerance test and see what doesn’t fit you. In traditional Chinese medicine people use face reading to discern the state of …

Hello my little blossoms! Today, I am going to show you my fav face mask. Face mask is my everyday routine, and one of the best masks for every type of skin is definitely my Honey, coconut oil & turmeric mask! I use a lot of natural beauty products because my skin can’t handle heavily perfumed products and all products filled with bad chemicals and artificial ingredients have caused it to flare up big time. Coconut oil has become my evening moisturiser and in pair with honey & turmeric is a super healing natural mask that treats breakouts and irritated skin. Instructions Grab a small bowl and mix the ingredients together, gently making a paste. Apply to your face (bare and clean!) and leave for 15-20 minutes. Make sure to focus on any problem areas. Rinse off with a warm dampened facecloth And the best part of it is : You can eat it! That’s right. When you put the mask on your face, grab a spoon and eat the rest of it. You can even add …
